Round Island Route - Coastal Adventure

Round Island Route (RIR), Singapore

The Round Island Route is a proposed 150Km long recreational walking and cycling route that circumnavigates Singapore. The RIR will connect existing rural, industrial, civic, residential, recreational, urban, natural, cultural, and historic locations with exciting new features, facilities and elements.

Coastal Adventure - RIR Corridor B

The RIR is divided into 3 Corridors and the eastern portion of the route, the "Coastal Adventure" (Corridor B), which is approximately 60km in length, and will be the first corridor of the RIR to be developed.
Continuing from our initial Masterplanning work on the RIR, Stephen Caffyn Landscape Design (SCLD) is pleased to have been awarded the Landscape Architectural consultancy for this this major recreation and infrastructure project in Singapore.

The population catchment of the Coastal Adventure Corridor encompasses the largest population concentration of the three corridors with large clusters along East Coast Parkway, Pasir Ris, Punggol and Sengkang. The route will connect and integrate with existing waterside parks, the park connector network, places of interest, and cultural and natural heritage sites.

Our design proposals incorporate measures to conserve and improve habitats along the route and increase biodiversity as well as recreational facilities and features.

Bishan to City - Feasibility Study

Bishan to City Feasibility Study, Singapore

The aim of the planning study is to further progress of the National Cycling Master Plan by providing seamless connectivity between Bishan and the City along the Kallang River. This URA commissioned study will determine the technical feasibility of a series of pedestrian and cycling friendly crossings along the Kallang Park Connector with the aim of creating a seamless route.

The planning study also intends to enhance the entire route, and considers criteria such as aesthetics, functionality, buildability, and cost.

Major road obstacles such as the PIE and Sims Avenue mean that the current PCN route is fragmented and in places difficult or dangerous for PCN users. The study looks at options and solutions to resolve these issues and connect the entire route whilst also incorporating themes and references to the historical, cultural, and biological diversity along the Kallang River.

Our Bishan to City Feasibility Study formed part of the URA exhibition “A River Runs Through It” featured on our blog in March 2017.
